Night Terrors

About the adventure

Right Now... It is night. A cold breeze moves quickly past you. The path around the corner is blocked by a gathering fog. You glance over your shoulder. More fog. The airy mist wildly moves closer. It touches you. Damp vapors from the Mist stick to your clothes. Suddenly surrounded by it, revealing terrifying silhouette just as the mist abruptly vanishes. Then a bell lightly tapping the sides of it self, it sounds like a scream. The smell of salt water and the sound of music. The mist rolls backwards through a porthole. Stranded in a wet dark storage deck in an unknown ship. Wind blows upon the haul. Creaky boards, the sound of music, the blowing of wind are muffled by a crash of lightning. A thunderous storm has broken upon this eerily empty harbor. Yours is the only ship, you can see. A few leagues away, fog. The same smokey cloud you had seen swirl up around you just moments before. Flashes of lightning reveal horrifying creatures lurking up from the water. But you are not where you were before. Water slushes against the small transport ship. You can hear the timber shifting. Ropes tied, hang from the upper deck to the water. Thick iron lanterns, stand at each street corner. Hilly roads lead into a village. There are only four piers of this port. Besides your own ship, it is empty. Pellets of rain hit the shingles of the tavern and an old wind mill. The Rusted Fish's sign sways violently against the wind, "Inn & Bar". Water pours from the stuffed gutters. Near the shore are storage houses. The mill's sails shiver with each strike of lightning. Ropes tie the arms down with spokes to the ground. An accordion wails their notes against the storm. Through a window, the Inn's hearth looks lit.
